Konoha, I have the Herrscher of the End core in my body.

"You guys eat first, I have something else to do here."

In Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant, just when Naruto was about to see how Kakashi eats, he just paid the bill and left. This made Naruto a little depressed. To be honest, he was not very interested in Kakashi's appearance under the mask. He knew that Kakashi was a handsome guy.

What interested him was the moment when Kakashi took off his mask to eat. In a way, this was also a famous scene.

"Sasuke, we are ninjas now. Let's go shopping later if you have time."

After eating ramen, Sakura looked shy and wanted to invite Sasuke to go shopping. Naruto shook his head secretly, said hello to the two of them, and left.

"As expected, love lowers one's IQ."

Naruto walked out of Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant and really didn't know what to say to Sakura. He knew that Sakura liked to pester Sasuke. This was nothing at ordinary times, but today was different. Sasuke had been hit by Kakashi's Thousand Years of Death before.

Although he looked normal afterwards, Naruto could still see that Sasuke was just holding on. Even though Kakashi's attack didn't seem to be very powerful, the problem was that the weak part of the human body.

Sasuke is a person who cares a lot about his image, so it is impossible for him to show his weakness in public, especially when that part is injured.

"This is Naruto, we have arrived at location a."

"Sasuke, arrive at location b."

"This is Sakura, we've arrived at location C."

"Okay, follow my orders and get started."

As Kakashi gave the order, three figures in the forest leaped towards the trunk of the middle tree from three directions. At the same time, a black shadow rushed out from the trunk of the tree, and then Sasuke stretched out his hand and grabbed the black shadow.

"Confirmed, there is a bow on the right ear, it is the lost pet tiger."

Looking at the fat cat in his hand, Sasuke reported to Kakashi who was directing from a distance through the headset that this was the sixth mission of Team 7. The day after Kakashi invited them to dinner, Team 7 started the mission.

At first, Sasuke and Sakura were very excited about the ninja's mission, but then when they saw the mission, their expressions immediately dropped. They thought it would be a difficult mission, but it turned out to be either finding lost pets, running errands, delivering letters or shopping, or cleaning up garbage.

After several missions, Sasuke's face became more and more ugly. He wanted to carry out difficult missions, preferably those involving combat, rather than looking for lost pets or cleaning up garbage here.

"Okay, mission accomplished."

After confirming that the lost pet was found, Kakashi immediately put the Intimate Paradise in his hand into the ninja bag on his waist and jumped down from a tree. For Kakashi, the only benefit of bringing a new ninja was probably that it gave him plenty of time to watch Intimate Paradise.

"Teacher Kakashi, are there any difficult tasks? It's always the same tasks, it's too boring." Looking at Kakashi jumping down from the tree, Naruto spoke directly.

Not only Sasuke was impatient with these tasks, he was the same. He originally wanted to wait for either Sasuke or Sakura to speak, but neither of them spoke, so Naruto had to speak himself.

"You should have read the mission manual. You are only Genin now, and can only do C-level or D-level missions. Once you become Chunin, you can take on more difficult missions."

Konoha's missions are divided into four levels, A, B, C, and D. Among them, Jonin can take all missions, Chunin can take missions of B level and below, and Genin can only take missions of C and D level.

Of course, this is only on the surface. There is also a kind of unknown mission in secret, that is the S-level. Because this kind of mission involves a lot of secrets, and may even involve assassination, it naturally cannot be put on the surface.

"Then Teacher Kakashi, can you take on escort missions?" As soon as Naruto finished speaking, Sasuke and Sakura nodded at the same time.

"Is that so? Then I'll go back and check it out." Kakashi saw that Sakura and Sasuke both had expressions of approval on their faces, and then nodded slightly, agreeing to Naruto's request.

Generally, after graduation, a Genin needs to do D-level missions for at least half a year before they can take on C-level missions. Strictly speaking, the D-level missions during this half year are not just about doing the missions, but about practicing while doing the missions.

Chakra climbing trees, treading water, basically, they all started to practice at this time. Theoretically, they had been Genin for a month and should have started some training, but Kakashi didn't teach them anything about training during this month, maybe because he was so fascinated by watching Intimate Paradise.

Naruto knew so much because he got it from Mizuki. Mizuki, Iruka and others all went through this process. Because they had poor talents, they only had to complete a D-level mission for a year.

Of course, this refers to ordinary ninjas. Those with good talents will naturally be treated differently. For example, they have not yet learned chakra to climb trees and tread water, but Hinata, Shikamaru and others have already learned it. If the Uchiha clan had not been exterminated, Sasuke would definitely have done the same.

"Want to take a C-level mission? Here is a suitable mission."

The group returned to the Hokage Building with their pet tiger. After handing the pet tiger over to the plump lady from the Fire Nation, Kakashi told the Third Hokage about Team 7's plan to take on the escort mission.

The Third Hokage pondered for a while, then took out a document from the files beside him, opened it, and said with a smile.

"This is an escort mission to protect the bridge-building expert Huibo Kingdom until the bridge is completed."

"Looks like I'm lucky. The mission hasn't changed. Fortunately, no one else took this mission, otherwise it would have been a trap."

The mission in the Land of Waves seems very simple, but if you look back carefully, you will find that this mission is a big pit. In Konoha, only Team 7 led by Kakashi or Team 3 led by Gai can complete the mission perfectly.

If other teams were to do this mission, it would be dangerous. Zabuza is not a simple character, especially if Hinata or Shikamaru took on this mission, the Twelve Young Warriors might really die before they could accomplish their mission.

Shikamaru is very smart, but this intelligence cannot make up for the gap in strength, otherwise Asuma would not have died later.

"Call Mr. Dazna over here."

After making the decision, the Third Hokage immediately gave orders to the Konoha ninjas standing guard on the side, and at the same time handed the documents in his hand to Iruka on the side, asking him to register the mission in the name of Team 7.

If it was Iruka from the original work, he would probably stop Team 7 from accepting this mission. But unfortunately the situation is completely different this time. Naruto has not established a bond with him, and Sasuke and Sakura only have an ordinary teacher-student relationship, so he naturally would not stop them.

"Speaking of which, it's almost time to discard Shuimu, the chess piece."

Looking at Iruka, Naruto immediately thought of Mizuki. The current Iruka can be said to have achieved success in both career and love, because he controlled the relationship between Mizuki. Mizuki had broken up with Tsubaki a long time ago, so this could be considered Naruto's compensation to the original Iruka.

Now that he has graduated from the Ninja Academy, there is naturally no need to keep Mizuki as a chess piece. However, how to maximize Mizuki's value at the last moment still needs to be considered.

"Mr. Dazna, they are the Konoha ninjas that will escort you back to the Land of Waves. You two should get to know each other."

Soon, the Konoha ninja came with Dazna who was drunk. After the two sides got to know each other, they confirmed the mission and set off the next day. Without Naruto's antics, there would naturally be no quarrel between the two sides when they met as in the original work.

"This is a long-term mission. Prepare everything you need when you return, and don't be late tomorrow."

After confirming the mission situation, Team 7 was immediately disbanded to escort Dazna until the bridge was completed. This was obviously not something that could be completed in a day or two. Even if they had already built half of the bridge, the remaining half would take at least a week or half a month.

"Speaking of which, Cardo is just an idiot. There are many ways to sabotage the bridge, but he chose the worst way."

On the way back, Naruto thought about the mission in Wave Country and shook his head speechlessly. After all, Cardo was the CEO of a large group and had many subordinates. If he really wanted to destroy the bridge, he didn't have to kill Dazna at all. For example, Dazna was in Konoha now, and he could let his subordinates blow up the bridge. This would definitely cost less than hiring an S-rank rebel ninja.

"Forget it, these don't matter. But Cardo is a big fat sheep, we can't let him go. There are also Zabuza and Haku. It just so happens that I am short of manpower here."

Cardo will die sooner or later. Instead of letting his property fall into the hands of some people after his death, it is better for him to take over.

"Sasuke."

Early the next morning, in front of the Konoha gate, Sakura saw Sasuke coming and immediately rushed over with excitement. For Sakura, this escort mission was actually equivalent to a long journey with Sasuke.

Sasuke looked at Sakura who was rushing towards him, snorted coldly, and walked past her. Since they were in the same team, although Sasuke was still very cold to Sakura, his attitude was much better than before.

"There are many electrical appliances, computers, and radios, but the way to get around is either walking or riding a horse-drawn carriage. Even if there are no trams, what about bicycles?"

Looking at Sakura who was surrounding Sasuke with excitement, even though Sasuke's attitude was very cold, it did not dampen her enthusiasm. Naruto was watching the people entering and leaving Konoha.

Even though it was only early morning, there were already quite a few people coming in and out of Konoha.

“Are they really okay?”

Dazna looked at Sakura surrounding Sasuke, and looked at Kakashi who arrived last with a worried look. This time he was not late.

"Don't worry, they are all very excellent ninjas in Konoha." Kakashi said to Dazna with a smile.

"Hopefully."

Even though he was a little disappointed, Dazna could only accept it since things had come to this point. It was because he issued a C-level escort mission. If he had issued an A-level mission, there would definitely be a team of Konoha jonin carrying out the mission by now.

He concealed the true situation of the mission first, so it’s natural that we can’t blame Konoha for not taking it seriously.

"Water, it looks like it's coming."

On the afternoon of the second day after leaving Konoha, Naruto looked at a puddle of water on the road, glanced at it lightly, and walked past it as if nothing had happened. Kakashi and Sasuke did the same as him. Only Sakura looked very excited and didn't care about the water on the road at all.

"First."

On a small path in the forest, a group of people just walked past a trail of water, and the next moment two figures jumped out from the water. Two chains with sharp spikes immediately locked Kakashi. Then, amid Sakura's screams, Kakashi was dismembered, and blood was scattered all over the sky.

"Is this a blood bag that you carry with you?"

"the second."

After killing Kakashi, the two figures suddenly rushed towards Naruto from the left and right, and the chains in their hands were raised again. Naruto seemed stunned at this time and stood there motionless.

bang bang.

Just when the two men were about to use the same trick again and lock Naruto with chains, Sasuke jumped up and threw two shurikens from his hands, which directly hit the two chains and nailed them to a tree trunk on the side. Then Sasuke kicked the two men one by one.

"I can't pull it."

The two people who were repelled pulled the chain hard, but found that they couldn't pull it, which surprised them a little. However, the next moment they immediately made a prompt decision, gave up the chain, waved the claws in their hands, one rushed towards Sakura and Dazna who were stunned on the side, and the other rushed towards Naruto.

When Sakura saw the figure rushing towards her, although she was very scared, she still picked up the kunai and stood in front of Dazna. Sasuke appeared in front of Sakura without hesitation, and greeted the rushing enemy with the kunai in his hand, blocking the enemy's attack.

boom.

A sudden muffled sound made Sasuke and others who were in confrontation look towards the place where the sound came from. They saw that the figure who rushed towards Naruto had his head stuck in a hole in the ground. Above his head, Naruto slowly loosened his right hand.

"Do you need help?" After killing the enemy, Naruto slowly said to Sasuke.

"Need not."

Naruto's words made Sasuke's face turn cold, and the next moment he rushed towards the enemy in front of him. At this time, the enemy had no will to fight and only wanted to retreat. However, it was too late, and soon Sasuke kicked him on the shoulder, seriously injuring him.

"It seems there is no need for me to take action." Kakashi's voice sounded at the right time.

"Kakashi-sensei, you're okay."

Sakura was very happy to see that Kakashi was safe and sound. Only Naruto and Sasuke didn't react. Even though Sasuke didn't know Kakashi's true strength, he understood that as a senior ninja of Konoha, he would not be killed so easily.

"Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, you all performed very well. But Mr. Dazna, you seem to be hiding something."

Kakashi smiled and praised Naruto and the other two, then looked at Dazna with a serious look. The reason why he pretended to be killed was not only to test the reactions of Naruto and the other two, but also to see who the enemy's target was.

Kakashi was very satisfied with the test results. Although Sakura seemed very scared, she was able to stand in front of Dazna with a kunai, which made her a qualified ninja.

"Since you are fine, why didn't you take action earlier?" Dazna did not answer Kakashi's question, but asked back.

"It's simple. I need to confirm who their target is. Is it you or us? You saw the result."

Whether the target is a Konoha ninja or Dazna are two completely different things. If it is a Konoha ninja, then it means it is an enemy of Konoha. As one of the five major ninja villages, Konoha naturally has no shortage of enemies.

If the target is Dazna, it means that he has concealed the information about the mission. This is not good news for Konoha. To be precise, for ninjas, the most feared thing is insufficient intelligence.
